Blues defenseman Barret Jackman participated in Saturday's morning skate and is expected to return to the lineup on Saturday vs. Minnesota, according to various media reports.

Jackman was injured in the second period of the Jan. 10 game vs. Montreal. As he carried the puck into the offensive zone, he was hit awkwardly by Canadiens defenseman P.K. Subban and took a hard tumble into the boards.

Jackman returned to the bench in the third period but did not play.

He sat out Thursday's game vs. Vancouver.

Through 42 games this season, Jackman is ranked 38th in the league with a +12 rating.
